Describe, in detail, the project/item's construction
The homeowner's wishes were to respect the roots and history of his historic Sierra Madre home by matching some of it's existing woodwork from the early 1900's. Open Faced Douglass Fir was used for the kitchen island, vanity, and medicine cabinets. We complimented this exotic wood with antique hardware on the maple cabinetry and painted it a beautiful mint tone that contrasts beautifully. We love how it turned out!

What is the most unusual aspect or outstanding characteristic of this entry?
Definitely the use of the Open Faced Douglass Fir. It's beautiful!​
​
